Ben Cunnington

Goals: 4
kangaroos.com.au says:
Having shown plenty of positive signs in his debut year in 2010, expectations were high for Ben Cunnington.
A niggling knee-injury threatened to derail his campaign, but he returned to full training in March and it was full steam ahead.
He was back for round one, but faced plenty of challenges being tested in roles through the midfield, in defence and even as a run-with player.
Cunnington found it tough to settle at times and was omitted on several ocassions, but the ability to play in different positions will no doubt help his development in the long run.
Despite the hurdles, he continued to look more comfortable with the ball in hands and his efficiency improved immensely as the season wore on.
He played arguably his best game of the year in the final round against the Tigers, giving plenty of reason for excitement if he can get his first full pre-season under his belt.
